The blog may have been untouched for 6 months (oops) but The Forgotten Library has been busy with December seeing every weekend on the top floor of Waterstones as part of the Craft in the City event. This was my stall and welcome refuge on a Saturday from my retail sun-fri day job.

During December I reached one of those big birthday milestones and a very dear friend sent me this gorgeous painting by Ritchie Collins.

I can’t do it justice in a photo, the detail is so incredible. There is something so magical about the night time cityscape that my imagination has been filled with what The Forgotten Library at this building might be like inside.

Whilst I fall over the crates of stock on the landing and try to rearrange my work bench to create amongst all the tools and materials piled there I dream of a studio with plenty of space in this amazing building full of historical character and dreams.
